Default The 370z is no change

In my Opinion, the 370z in just a facelift. Reminds me of how Nissan updated the 84-86 300zx version to the 87-89 Nissan 300zx "facelift". It still looks like a nice car, though the 350z looks classier.

a facelift has new body panels. the 370s is completely different in every single way, body and mechanically. not saying i like or dont like it, but to say its just a facelift is just outright wrong

shorter wheelbase, wider body, lower, 3.7 liters= 330hp, lighter, more rigid chasis. front side of the car is more of love it or hate it kind a thing but its growing in to me. sharper design of the interior except for that damn square head rest.
..... that is more than a facelift.

its all personal preference. i wasnt really too impressed with it until i saw it in person. i love my 350 and the 370 at the same time but after reading all about the 370 i wouldnt mind owning it.

You see I feel the exact same way. Except, at least for me, I don't buy a car unless I MUST have it and am completly in love with it. And with the 370z, i'm just.....not

Admittedly, the allure of a lighter car with more horsepower, and an upgraded interior, is tough to resist. But then I realize that it's looks are on par with that of a Sentra, and I am a bit put off. It comes down to whether or not I can sacrifice looks for more performance, and then I realize that I never track, I don't drag, my commute is the same regardless of how much horsepowah I have, and my '07 still has under 10k on the odo. So for me, the 370Z makes no sense, common or financially.

uuhh.. yea, so I think they did a little bit more than just give it a face lift.... the car is shorter, wider, and sits lower to the ground. Has bigger brakes, a motor with more power... yada yada yada...

+1. I just fell in love with the 350Z 7 years ago when Nissan started leaking pictures. It's different with th 370Z, I wasn't too enamored when I saw it.
